    Notes: Abstract Trichosporon beigelii SBUG 752 was able to transform diphenyl ether. By TLC, HPLC, GC, GC-MS, NMR- and UV-spectroscopy, several oxidation products were identified. The primary attack was initiated by a monooxygenation step, resulting in the formation of 4-hydroxydiphenyl ether, 2-hydroxydiphenyl ether and 3-hydroxydiphenyl ether (48:47:5). Further oxidation led to 3,4-dihydroxydiphenyl ether. As a characteristic product resulting from the cleavage of an aromatic ring, the lactone of 2-hydroxy-4-phenoxymuconic acid was identified. The possible mechanism of ring cleavage to yield this metabolite is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Laccase, a ligninolytic enzyme, was secreted by each ofthe white rot fungi Trametes versicolor and Pycnoporus cinnabarinusduring growth in a nitrogen-rich medium under agitated conditions. Afteraddition of 2-hydroxydibenzofuran to cell-freesupernatants of the cultures, yellow precipitates wereformed. These precipitates were poorly soluble in waterand therefore readily separated from the supernatant. Theproducts formed were more hydrophobic than thesubstrate, as indicated by their longer retention times on areverse phase high-performance liquid chromatographycolumn. Mass spectrometric analysis of the purifiedproducts indicated the formation of oligomers. Analysis ofthe mixture of products by gas chromatography and massspectrometry after derivatization with diazomethanesuggested the formation of at least three dimeric and ninetrimeric products. Carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygenbonds were identified in the dimers and trimers,respectively. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum ofthe main dimer suggested coupling of the two monomersat the carbon one position.

    Notes: Abstract The white-rot fungi Trametes versicolor SBUG 1050, DSM 11269 and DSM 11309 are able to oxidize diphenyl ether and its halogenated derivatives 4-bromo- and 4-chlorodiphenyl ether. The products formed from diphenyl ether were 2- and 4-hydroxydiphenyl ether. Both 4-bromo- and 4-chlorodiphenyl ether were transformed to the corresponding products hydroxylated at the non-halogenated ring. Additionally, ring-cleavage products were detected by high perfomance liquid chromatography and characterized by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Unhalogenated diphenyl ether was degraded to 2-hydroxy-4-phenoxymuconic acid and 6-carboxy-4-phenoxy-2-pyrone. Brominated derivatives of both these compounds were formed from 4-bromodiphenyl ether, and 4-chlorodiphenyl ether was transformed in the same way to the analogous chlorinated ring cleavage products. Additionally, 4-bromo- and 4-chlorophenol were detected as intermediates from 4-bromo- and 4-chlorodiphenyl ether, respectively. In the presence of the cytochrome-P450 inhibitor 1-aminobenzotriazole, no metabolites were formed by cells of Trametes versicolor from the diphenyl ethers investigated. Cell-free supernatants of whole cultures with high laccase and manganese peroxidase activities were not able to transform the unhydroxylated diphenyl ethers used.
